The vehicle

A ramp at the back, a low floor, and four-point securement inside — so you stay in your own chair from your front door to the appointment desk. We price the route before anything is booked, and you know the fare up front.

How we run it

Every trip tracked, from assignment to arrival.

We built our own dispatch system rather than running the business off a whiteboard and a phone. 50+ trips on a weekday, across Nebraska and beyond it — every leg logged and reconciled against the broker the same week — which is how we can tell you what our on-time rate is instead of guessing at it.

Zone-locked routing. Vehicles work their own area, so pickup windows stay tight.
25-point vehicle check. Every van is inspected before it carries anyone; a failed check pulls it off the schedule.
Confirmation before we come. A text ahead of the ride, so nobody waits at a window wondering.

Pete was absolutely great. On the way to the doctor's appointment, he cranked up the ac to make sure my wife was getting the cold air on this hot and humid day. On the return from the doctor's office, he made sure I had set up the ramps before wheeling her out of the cool van so she wouldn't be wai…

The company is reliable and amazing to ride for. My driver, Mary was very personable, a joy to chat with! She was professional in providing me contact information to call when I was ready to be picked up from my appointment and was on time! I would definitely ride for this company again and I would…

Why families choose us

A missed ride is a missed treatment.

Dialysis three times a week does not reschedule itself. That is the standard we hold ourselves to, and it is why families put a parent in our vehicles rather than whoever was cheapest.

Book it yourself, today. No case worker, no authorisation, no broker queue. You book, we confirm, it is done.
The price is the price. Quoted per route before the vehicle is assigned. No meters, no surprise charges afterwards.
We go where others decline. Rural and long-distance routes included, not just the easy metro runs.
Drivers who care about the job. Patient and respectful, with driving records and backgrounds reviewed before they carry anybody.
Door-to-door, never kerb-to-kerb. Help from the front door to the appointment desk, and back again.
Standing appointments handled once. Set the pattern up and stop rebooking it every week.
Home care under the same roof. The people who drive your mother can also support her at home.

How it works

Four steps, about two minutes.

Tell us the trip

Where from, where to, what time the appointment is, and whether a wheelchair is needed. Online or on the phone.

We confirm it

We check coverage, assign the right vehicle and driver, and text you a confirmation. Recurring appointments are set up once.

We take you there

Your driver helps you from your door to the vehicle and walks you in at the other end. We handle the ride home too.

Your rides, in one place

Booking creates your account. Set a PIN, then sign in any time with your phone number to see what is coming up, look back at past trips, and keep your details current.

Our office

We’re here in Omaha.

Some of our fleet, outside our office. When you ring, somebody here picks up, and the van that turns up came from this car park — not from a dispatch centre in another state.

Our drivers are people who care about the work: patient with riders who need a hand, respectful of the ones who do not. Driving records and backgrounds are reviewed before anybody carries a passenger. On a standing appointment you will usually see the same driver each week, which matters more than it sounds like it should.

Questions

The things people ask first.

Can I just book directly, without a referral or a broker?
Yes. Most of the people who find us here book and pay directly — no case worker, no authorisation, no waiting on a broker to approve a trip. Book online or call and we will confirm it with you on the spot.
What does a wheelchair ride cost?
It depends on the distance and whether you need a return leg, and we quote it before anything is booked. You will know the fare up front, in full, with no surprise charges afterwards. Call and we will price your route while you are on the phone.
Can you take my wheelchair, or do I have to transfer?
You stay in your own chair. Our wheelchair vans are ramp-equipped with four-point securement, and every driver is trained on loading and tie-down. Tell us the chair type — including power chairs and bariatric chairs — when you book, and we will assign a van that fits it.
Do you take Medicaid too?
Yes. We are a contracted Nebraska Medicaid transport provider, so if you are eligible the trip may be arranged through the state broker at no cost to you. Tell us and we will check. Either way you get the same vehicles and the same drivers.
How far ahead should I book?
We ask for at least 24 hours. Tomorrow’s schedule is built, assigned and confirmed the evening before, so a ride booked for the same day arrives after the day has already gone out to drivers and riders. Book a day ahead and the route is planned properly. If something urgent comes up, call us and we will do what we can — but the honest answer is that a day’s notice gets you a better ride.
Do you do airport runs, family events or non-medical trips?
Yes. If you need a wheelchair-accessible vehicle for anything at all — an airport transfer, a wedding, a family visit, moving somebody home from a rehab facility — we do those, and they are booked and paid for the same simple way.
Will the driver wait and help me inside?
Yes. This is door-to-door, not kerb-to-kerb. Your driver helps you from your door to the vehicle and walks you in at the other end.
Can you set up recurring rides?
Yes, and most of our riders are on one. Dialysis three times a week, weekly therapy, a monthly specialist — we schedule the whole pattern once so you are not booking it again every week.
Which areas do you cover?
Omaha and the surrounding metro, out to Lincoln, Fremont, Blair, Plattsmouth, Ashland and Grand Island. We also run rural routes that other providers turn down. If you are not sure, call us.

Still unsure? Call (402) 315-1473 — a person answers.

Book the ride. We’ll handle the rest.

Two minutes online, or one phone call. We ask for a day’s notice so the route is planned properly — and if we cannot take the trip, we will say so straight away.
